1958-64 Chevy Rear End Kit Installation Instructions

INSTALLING THE FORWARD 4-LINK MOUNTING BRACKET:
1. The stock‘58-64 Chevy forward control-arm brackets will need to be trimmed to accept the new fabricat- ed forward 4-link control-arm brackets in your kit.
2. Looking at the front of the factory control- arm bracket, you’ll need to remove the material as shown. Keep the outside edge of the bracket (pen pointing to this edge) vertically straight. The new bracket seats against this edge on both sides of chassis.
3. Install the new bracket all the way into the stock frame bracket pocket until it seats on the outer edge. Keep the new bracket to the top edge of pocket
4. Keeping the bracket to the top edge of the opening and seated all the way in, weld as many places as possible. Weld inside to the frame rail and down the forward edge as well.
5. To add more strength, we recommend welding a 3/16”-1/4” small plate over the opening and weld it to the edge of the new bracket and factory bracket as many places as you can.
6. There are 2 factory holes just to the front of the coil spring pocket on both sides of the chassis.
7. Drill out the inside hole to 3/4” on both sides of the chassis for the new upper coilover mount.
